Looking for the proper Children's Martial Arts program here in Clearwater?
Which Martial Arts style is right for your child? It's a question many people ask themselves. A lot will come down to personal tastes, wants and needs. However, many will be limited to what is available to them locally. Take the time to have a look through our website so we can help you decide which martial art may suit you and your child best.
Firstly let me say that martial arts has now become one of the most popular pastimes in the world and is still on the increase. There are so many types, ancient and traditional all the way to modern hybrids, that cover everything from general mental, spiritual/religious and physical health, sports competitions, weapons based training and street/war self defense combat systems.
We like to pride ourselves that we have everything your child will need to start their journey into become a fine outstanding person.
Our primary style we offer is Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, but our Children's Martial Arts curriculum has a variety of styles associated, therefore our teaching spectrum comes from a wide variety of styles.
HOW CHILDREN BENEFIT FROM PARTICIPATING IN MARTIAL ARTS IN CLEARWATER:
BJJ vs. Other Martial Arts for Kids
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu enables practitioners to subdue their opponents without the use of punching and kicking, eliminating the need to use excessive force in a real-life self-defense situation. BJJ is a martial art that uses grappling techniques and ideal for diffusing an aggressive situation. Nobody has to get hurt with Jiu-Jitsu, the idea of "tapping out" during training allows the students to keep their training realistic, yet safe.
Why BJJ for Kids as Self Defense
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is the ideal method of self-defense for kids since it emphasizes leverage and technique over strength and power. This focus makes it possible for all children to excel, regardless of their size or athletic ability.
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a martial art designed to work with the principles of leverage and technique instead of brutal force and strength. The main focus of BJJ is on the ground grappling: the most important but often neglected area of martial arts and MMA.
It is a fact that 90% of all fights end up in clinch and eventually on the ground. BJJ gives you the necessary tools to fully protect yourself in the most common type of street confrontations and against any other type of martial art.
Learning Coordination Early in Life through Martial Arts
Kids learn motor movement at a very early age. Martial Arts challenges the entire body, developing coordination, balance, agility and poise. These traits are often neglected and not fully developed in team sports. By starting children in Jiu-Jitsu they learn how to fall properly, and how to initiate movement patterns that are inherent to life and any sport they might choose down the road. We also begin basic fitness and calisthenics that will give them a leg-up on their peers who do not engage in fitness activities at an early age.
Learn Discipline, Perseverance & Commitment by training in the Martial Arts
Kids are ranked in a belt system and within these belts they will earn degrees. The belt system allows your child to set long-term goals (becoming a black belt) and short-term goals, such as being able to execute a new technique they learned in class, or achieving their next degree or belt. These skills will help you child learn commitment and perseverance which are life-long skills important for every child to learn and understand to succeed in their goals.
Our professional instructors will be here to help your child from day one. They will decide what your child's needs are, develop a plan and a training schedule in order to achieve these goals.
